FAQs
What is the water resistance rating of this jacket?
The jacket has a water resistance of 10,000mm water column, providing protection against moderate rain.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for in-between seasons and offers an insulated membrane for warmth. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer it over insulating clothing like sweaters or fleeces.
Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash it cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
How should I dry the jacket?
It is best to tumble dry on low heat or hang dry away from direct sunlight. Do not iron.
What does 'fitted cut' mean for this jacket?
A fitted cut means the jacket is designed to be close-fitting to the body, offering a modern and streamlined silhouette, rather than a loose or oversized fit.
How do I maintain the water-repellent properties?
To maintain water repellency, avoid fabric softeners during washing and consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray periodically, especially if you notice water is no longer beading on the surface.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from technical stretch polyester fabric.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the seams.
Ensure the seams are properly heat-sealed. If damage is suspected, contact customer support. Regular re-waterproofing of the outer fabric can also help.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels less water-resistant than before.
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and then apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray for technical fabrics according to product instructions.
Elasticated cuffs/hem losing elasticity.
Avoid excessive heat during drying, as this can degrade elastic materials. Ensure proper washing and drying as per care instructions.
